Great recap Treading. I agree that this weeks episode was a bit of a letdown considering the buildup. Why didn't we get a preview for next week by the way? We need to revisit Crazy Brooke and Needy Colie. I'm sure whenever they go on their camping trip we'll get some more drama.

Ona related note anyone else see the RW/RR challenge promo? Looks good. I'm surprised they are already showing which current Denver castmates are going to be in it.

You are so right, Treadingonme, we were definitely duped with respect to Tyrie’s arrest. Not that I’m disappointed (because it would have been very wrong) but the previews gave us the impression that Tyrie was handcuffed for beating up Jazalle. Come to find out, he was simply taking a leak.

wow, i never thought that anyone would surpass johanna stealing a flower from a homeless person and robin hitting a police officer while demonstrating how she did not hit someone else as the most idiotic RW arrests ever. that is until tyrie’s dumb arse get’s popped for peeing on the sidewalk RIGHT IN FRONT of 5.0! as a big, black man wildin’ out in public, it looked like those officers were just waiting for a reason to arrest him and he handed it to them on a silver platter. why didn’t he just hold up a huge sign that said “ARREST ME, I’M AN IDIOT”?

i do love the way ty’s dad calmly conveyed what a jacka$$ his son was for those actions. daddy ty’s deadpan delivery (“that’s interesting” & “that’s probably not something I imagine you would like to repeat”) had me laughing so hard!

p.s. is it just me or doesn’t jen seem like such a rational, credible person and a great friend when she’s giving her roommates all those pep talks after they embarrass themselves on camera? if you didn’t know how much of a raving lunatic hooch she is, i dare say she might seem like a cool person.* i guess her twisted Powers of Rationalization are affecting me through the tv screen. :-d

*disclaimer: this statement is in no way an indication that I support jen in her hoochified endeavors nor feel that it is acceptable for a cool person to diss their not-quite significant other for not admitting the fact that he kissed some girls in a public location thousands of miles away after said “cool” person confessed to jumping her roommate’s bones on national television after knowing said roommate for less than 24 hours.

;-)

Ah requisite RW arrest, check!

Tyrie pissed on the gate of his own house. Umm.. EW! And then he went to jail, spent the night, and didn't CHANGE the next day! Seriously, every shot I just kept wondering when he would be something new. Just gross man.

I loved Stephen and Alex's lunch-talk with Darnell. They both summed up Jenn so perfectly (EXCEPT for when Stephen said "She's not a whore.")

Treadingonme - Great recap! I think you were in my head, because you hit on almost all of the things that I thought...I totally thought the Stephen was saying the cops thought Jazelle was a prostitute, and holy Kiss and Tell Darnell.


Shiaobundan - I noticed right away that Tyrie didn't change. I said that to Mr. Meow - he just threw on a blue button down and they went out for food. Eww...

Where were Brooke, Davis and the dreaded E. Colie? I don't think I saw any them even once!

Apparently screaming and pissing on the street while drunk is a no-no in Denver, and well just about every other place in the country! Jeezusss, what a cluster-fuck of an episode!

Tyrie and Jazelle should just split, it's bad drama from every angle. Tyrie needs to relax and get a grip on his aggression, and Jazelle needs more plastic surgery to complete the transformation from male to female - her cousin seemed cool though. Why are the friends and sidekicks so much cooler than the people on the show (BRETT!)?

The guys scooping on Jenn was fairly amusing, yet also kind of horrifying. Jenn needs to shut down the old Tuna Tunnel for cleaning and renovations, it just doesn't seem like a safe place to ride. Jared looks like the long-lost, visually-challenged spawn of Adrien Brody and Elvis Costello.

I loved Jenn's convoluted logic about why Jared fucked up, which allowed her to justify her own need to whore around. Whatever. Please sterilize her, and I mean that in EVERY sense of the word.

If Jenn could get off of her back for more than an hour or two, and simultaneously stay off the booze, she MIGHT have some potential to actually be kind of cool. Oh, except for the fact that she's a fucking idiot!

treadingonme, the screencaps were hilarious, I was completely cracking up; the recap was great too!

Lol Chee-Z! You should start one of those internet petitions. "Sterilize Jenn (insert last name) for the good of human race." I would sign.

The ENTIRE San Diego cast with the exception of Jaquese - who was cool and mellow

Sorry Rock Star, you were right. I actually forgot about Jamie on that season. She was also cool and mellow, and so was Cameran for the most part. Mea Culpa.

Robin (truly a racist bitch, especially if you saw the last "Challenge" - inexusable!), Brad, Randy, Frankie - ALL NUTS though (I actually kind of like Brad though, he's pretty funny.)

Lol Chee-Z! You should start one of those internet petitions. "Sterilize Jenn (insert last name) for the good of human race." I would sign.

LOL! Now THAT would drive some of my fellow posters absolutely nuts! Lets do it! LOL!

I think her last name is Grijalva - I don't know what's worse; that I'm advocating for enforced sterilization (even as a joke), or that I know her last name... yeah, it's definitely worse that I know her last name. Definitely!

Oh yeah, I had to rewind TWICE just to catch Jenn's VERY knowledgeable run-down about meals in "lock-down".

What a FREAK!

What's up with the Typekey sign in? It's driving me nuts, especially because so many people are coming up as Anonymous. It also keeps logging out, while I'm on it - is that happening to anyone else - or am I missing something really obvious?

What gives TVgasm? Is it a CIA conspiracy? Is it The Hapsburg Effect? Do we just have to get used to it? (We will if we have to!)

did anyone catch steven's appropriately geeky "the governator" t shirt while driving to pick up tyrie from jazelle's house?? too funny.

Ty didn't get arrested. He got put in the drunk tank. The drunk tank is very popular here in Denver. Also, the real world house is right next to several big bars. The cops are always waiting on Market Street for the drunks!

I also thought it was so odd that tyrie peed right outside of his house - dumbest move ever! And why the hell didn't he change when he got home?! I was repulsed.

Unless darnell looks a lot better in person, i really dont think he's "so hot"...he looked average at most to me.

jazelle really does look like a drag queen to me and her whiny voice is so annoying!

"The guys scooping on Jenn was fairly amusing, yet also kind of horrifying. Jenn needs to shut down the old Tuna Tunnel for cleaning and renovations, it just doesn't seem like a safe place to ride"
Hilarious!!! That girl has to have something. If two of the guys she has slept with since being in the house for, what 8 weeks according to Tyrie, have just all of a sudden realized they were having sex with her, she clearly has not been using any protection.

efk2020 - while Ty may have been in the drunk tank, it sounded like the cop did arrest him...i could have sworn he said "you are under arrest anything you say....and it goes on"

Didn't Tyrie said in the casting special he used to be in a gang?

If that's the case, what, he's never been in trouble/arrested before?
Give me a break.

And I still don't understand what was up with Stephen and the cops. It seemed like he called the police and then tried to wuss out by telling Tyrie it was never about him.

Is Davis still on this show?

I thought Tyrus said he was in a gang, I think he is a wanna be crip, nigga always wearing blue and shit. If this is the case how could he have never been arrested or in trouble before??

This whole season has been a series of letdown's.

I felt bad for Ty, this is a guy who is genuinely a good dude and he gets arrested for some stupidness.

Arrested for peeing?! A bit much. Hopefully it will get wiped off (unintended pun there) somehow.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Jen is the biggest ho in the history of Real World, and Jazelle is the utter definition of a butterface.

That guys only lunch the day after Darnell boned Jen was hilarious. If it was me I would feel awkward. These dudes just don't care. Funny stuff though.

Is Colie pretty much useless now?

I seriously don't understand why everyone's calling Jen a whore but no one is calling Alex a whore...

They are both whores. Even Alex's mother told him she thought he was a whore in one of the first few episodes.

I think the fact that Jenn is also just skanky, in addition to be a whore, inspires more reaction. If she looked like Brooke or E. Colie, we'd still think she was loose, but more like a Cara-type (Chicago) than Tonya-type (RW/RW phase).

Also, Jenn is 3 to Alex's 2 sexual conquests. I'm not counting E. Colie because Alex just made-out with her.

And E. Colie should be the poster-child for asexuality.

She's weird.

LOL Tuna Tunnel!!! HAHAHAHA.. Please make that a staple word on your recaps!

Could you elaborate on that? I have no idea who Cara from Chicago is!

Tonya Cooley is now doing softcore porn on SKINemax. LOL!

http://www.realityblurred.com/realitytv/archives/the_real_world_chicago/2007_Feb_13_tonya_cooley_cinemax

Ha, ha - Looks like Jenn might have a career in "film" to look forward to. I'm now thinking of potential porn names, which is one of my favorite Reality TV star past-times!

So far I've come up with Rocky Mountains; Connie DeLoma; Cleo Torres; and Anita Paptest...

I think Tyrie's "gang" participation was when he was kid.

It was a real bad-ass gang, and their "colors" were khaki shirts and pants with different-colored bandana's. They were awarded medals and badges when they completed gang milestones. Some of the milestones were: Boondoggle; starting a fire with sticks, camping, identifying plants and keeping your trap shut after the oldest, adult gang-leader banged you in the ass.

I'll bet Tyrie's gang name was "Canteen-Boy".

shiaobundan--i too noticed how nasty ty was for never changing his drunk, smoky bar, jail clothes! Like, eww dude, dont you think you should take a shower before you go back out again???

Jenn is completely retarded! First of all she lead on to Jared as if she only had sex w/ Alex ONCE...and it seemed like she confessed the 2nd time not the 1st IMO. Then she tries to flip it back on him? I think that was her guilt putting up a defense. She's a ho though, and a nasty one at that! Can't blame tv editing either....

I think Stephen called the cops himself. He disappeared for a few minutes during the crazy argument and then all of a sudden the police show up and he just happened to have been outside to talk to them--hmm?
Jazelle is a media-whore( so is every other RW "significant other" i think). Her bitching was silly but I too would have been scared around a drunk and screaming Tyrie-he's huge!

Davis, Brooke Alex and Colie are either hard sleepers i guess lol

LOL, you're freaking hilarious, Chee-z! I always enjoy reading your post as much as the actual recap.

Some of Jen's Porn star ( or as she would call it, ROCKSTAR!) name suggestions: Bozo the Whore, denver tuna, bitch face, Slutty jen...list goes on and on, but the perfect one and the funniest one was Anita Paptest!!!!

And your comments on Tyrie being a former boy scou..er..gang mamber was so funny. absolutely a ROFL moment for me. PROPS TO YOU!

Jazelle seriously has an unfortunate face! If I were here, I'd feel a little threatened by Ashley too!'

But those are her issues not Tyries'. She won points for admitting that she over-reacted.

babeblue...........I actually agree with everything you said about Jenn. Sure she's a bit on the "easy side" but she does have a knack for calming OTHER PEOPLE down when it comes to crazy situations. I just wish she could do that for herself as well.
I loved her rundown of the "Drunk Tank", and she's not afraid to admit she's been there before.
Girl just doesn't give a damn about what anyone says about her, and not in a completely obnoxious (a'la Tina on Road Rules) way.

A $30,000. bar tab? I wonder if any of these people will sue MTV when they end up in rehab.

I usually don't care about any of the machinations and behind the scenes manipulations MTV uses to promote drama; but supplying massive quantities of alcohol seems like they might be treading on VERY thin ice regarding ethics and basic moral responsibilty. I wonder if they make it clear to the participants that they are going to do that?

Both Davis and Jenn have admitted to having drinking problems. Although I know THEY are personally responsible for choosing or not choosing to drink, that just seems like throwing a steak into a lion's den - it's hard-wired into their brains to want it.

Hmmmm..... I'll have to ponder this.....

...over a few drinks.

Great recap- a few laugh outloud moments. This was my favorite:

"If you're thinking it's because he wants to be with Colie and this gets Jenn off his back, I doubt it. Also, if you're thinking that, your name is probably Colie and you're actually on the show. Welcome."

Haha- so true. Colie is PATHETIC.

Jen really might be the biggest skank on RW. How do you not care that guys are sitting around discussing how easy you are? Yeah- she is definitely ready for a porn career. That tongue bath she gave Alex a few episode's ago was straight out of some Vivid DVD. Who does that??

On a side note- I've seen Tonya's Skinamax work and it's actually pretty good. She seems to have found her calling.

"While that was going on, Darnell has joined Alex, Ty and Stephen for lunch. He asks what the story is on Jenn, since he doesn't know her at all. "Don't need to," says Stephen, in what may be the most accurate statement ever said on this season. Get it? You don't need to know her to sleep with her? (Because she's easy!) Then he tells Alex to chime in, and Alex, reluctant to voice his opinions on Jenn, says he thinks Darnell should. I assume he means "should do Jenn." I wonder why Alex would suggest that. If you're thinking it's because he wants to be with Colie and this gets Jenn off his back, I doubt it. Also, if you're thinking that, your name is probably Colie and you're actually on the show. Welcome."

This is one of the most hilarious paragraphs that I have ever read. FANTASTIC RECAP!!

Awesome recap :) I gotta say I feel bad for Tyrie, he seems like a pretty nice guy. He should dump Jazalle ASAP, I think he could do so much better. As for Jenn, wow, ewwww, poor Darnell, he didn't even know the cesspool of diseases he was getting into. Hopefully he used protection.

I loved when Alex, Darnell, and Stephen were having lunch and Stephen said, "I'm not saying she's a ho..." and then looked right at the camera. It was as if he wanted Jenn to know that when she saw the episode.
